Always ask yourself: "What will happen if I say nothing?

Forgiveness is a transformative act because it asks you to be a more empathetic and compassionate person, thereby making you better than the person you were when you were first hurt.

You must have hope in a better future and have faith in this hope. But then you must forget your hope and focus on this moment now.

Ignorance might be bliss. But self-forgetfulness is pure ecstasy.

Why are we afraid of the silence that ensues after our death? Wasn’t it the same silence we endured before birth? Isn’t it the same silence we revel in when we are completely immersed in the present moment? Let us not be afraid.

It doesn’t matter whether you are looking for a reason to be happy or sad, you will always find it.

Why wait to forgive and let go only after you have sufficiently wallowed in your despair? Why not forgive and let go now?

You need to keep hurting until you realise you never needed to hurt in the first place.

Whenever you are angry, take a beautiful object in your house and smash it to pieces. The pity you feel for what you have done is silly compared to what you are doing to your mind: taking a sacred moment to be alive and desecrating it by being angry.
